Tim, with all due respect (and as a former AOBA member), every year we
go through this when unsuspecting new members realize that they get
nothing but the "privilege" of spending additional money for their
regular farm membership dues.

If people were, in your words, "adequately advised," then we would not
have to experience this little drama year after year. The fact is, new
members expect that they will benefit directly from AOBA marketing,
and simply put, they don't.

And now there is another person scratching her head and wondering just
what it was she paid for... not to mention all those that are
questioning the decision to charge prospects for the F&RG.

Happens every year about this time, doesn't it...
